Pipe Bands are for

Everyone

The Royal New Zealand Pipe Bands’ Association has been supporting New Zealand bands since 1928. From those early days, bands have grown in numbers and strength, and the level of performance has improved beyond belief.

The RNZPBA is managed by a small, dedicated team. Our mission is simple – to promote pipe bands, and pipe band membership throughout New Zealand, by whatever means possible.
